About Me

Hi, my name is Shawn Carter — a full-stack software engineer with 9+ years of experience building production applications across retail, healthcare, and nonprofit sectors. I specialize in JavaScript-based development, from interactive front-end experiences to full-stack platforms with custom authentication and database architecture.

My technical foundation is self-taught, built through years of solving real-world problems and shipping code that real people use. During my tenure at Fleet Feet, I evolved from marketing into increasingly complex technical responsibilities, building everything from interactive race calendars to product management systems. This path gave me strong communication skills and the ability to translate business requirements into technical solutions.

I work across the full development stack using React, TypeScript, Node.js, and WordPress, with a focus on creating maintainable, user-centered applications. Whether it's building a dual-sided healthcare marketplace, optimizing e-commerce experiences, or creating interactive digital catalogs, I approach each project with attention to both technical excellence and business impact.

Outside of professional development, I stay creatively engaged through writing, strategy games like Magic: The Gathering, and hands-on hobbies that keep my problem-solving skills sharp.

I'm currently seeking full-stack or front-end engineering roles with plans to relocate to Los Angeles.
